Call of Duty Merch Shop Hints at Verdansk Return Next Week

Exciting news for Call of Duty: Warzone fans: the beloved Verdansk map is set to make a thrilling return on March 10, 2025. Activision initially announced the comeback of Verdansk last August, hinting at a "spring 2025" window, but now, a specific date has been locked in, much to the delight of the community.

A visit to the Call of Duty shop now reveals a countdown to the unveiling of "The Verdansk Collection," scheduled for March 10, 2025, as reported by InsiderGaming. Accompanying this announcement is an evocative tri-color sketch depicting an alpine scene reminiscent of Verdansk's iconic landscape, featuring snow, pine trees, a dam, and a crashed plane. This familiar setting was a staple of the original Warzone experience before being succeeded by Verdansk '84 in Season 3, and eventually replaced by Caldera in 2021. Currently, the only way to revisit this cherished map is through Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.

This news comes as a surprise to many, especially after the 2021 statement that "current-day Verdansk is gone and it's not coming back." The return of Verdansk is sure to rekindle the excitement and nostalgia that many players associate with the map.

In related news, Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Season 2 is now live, featuring an array of exciting updates. Players can enjoy five new Multiplayer maps: Bounty, Dealership, Lifeline, Bullet, and Grind, as well as the return of the fan-favorite Gun Game mode, along with new weapons and operators. Don't miss out on the highly anticipated Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles crossover event, which promises to add a fun twist to the gameplay.

Meanwhile, Warzone has received a more modest update this season. The development team is currently focused on addressing critical issues, including gameplay tuning, bug fixes, and quality-of-life improvements, which has led to less content being added than initially planned.
